1st of all your questions lead to contributions, so keep em coming.

hey, wait- all you need is the knock sensor ign? Weeeeeel then my

You can graft the KS into your existing system with a hybrid schematic 
and a few parts. Easy peasy.

Since my own hybrid write up is A) left behind on a non existing web 
site w/ my old ISP & B) two or three HD archived behind the one I am 
currently working with I point you at another (and better production 
value having) web site:
